Studying the Bible can be intimidating, especially for new Christians. Or maybe you've been a believer for a long time but never had someone disciple you in the area of personal Bible study. God has given me a love for teaching and a passion for His Word. The inductive study method is the method I … Continue reading Inductive Bible Study Worksheet
Showing Love This Christmas
I am not an incredibly girly woman. Yes, I like doing my hair and make-up or, "gettin' all fancy" as my son calls it. Yes, I occasionally paint my fingernails. I even spent the Valentine's Day my husband was at bootcamp watching P.S. I Love You with my mother in law, while enjoying a diy … Continue reading Showing Love This Christmas
Thankful
I learned a powerful and beautiful lesson a few weeks back that I thought I would share. My oldest son backed up our septic system by flushing a dog collar, underpants, and a wash cloth. That was a mess in itself. Then you add to that 3 fallen trees, old broken windows, and all the … Continue reading Thankful
Saturday on the Homestead
We've been busy doing a bunch of random things here lately. My husband is in week 12 of seminary so he's up to his eyeballs in theological reading. I've been reading Surprised by Joy by C. S. Lewis. It's the story of his conversion with a good bit of autobiographical background I find both relatable … Continue reading Saturday on the Homestead
It Has Begun…
I. Love. Christmas. Especially with kids in the house. As a child, I loved the holidays during school. All the crafted Christmas ornaments, the Christmas word searches that filled time when my teachers had gotten through the required materials ahead of schedule (or maybe just given up?) I love being able to do those things … Continue reading It Has Begun…
More Winter Homestead Preparation
Our place is really beautiful in the fall, but Oh. My. Lanta. I almost haven't had time to enjoy it!! We have been outrageously busy here. This past weekend we had a wedding in the family. Our oldest was the ring bearer in my husband's cousin's wedding. It was pretty, and fun, and we saw … Continue reading More Winter Homestead Preparation

Back to Eden: Barrenness to Abundance
This is the start of our 3rd year on this property. Lately I had been really discouraged about all the things we need to do, and the things we haven't been able to accomplish (goats, windows, roof, doors, floors, kitchen, bathrooms, etc...) But then, I happened across an old picture of the place before we … Continue reading Back to Eden: Barrenness to Abundance
Gardening Lies You’ve Been Told
I recently pruned my cherry and peach trees. Yep, I did a soft pruning in October. One of the biggest lies is that you can only prune your trees in dormancy. That's like saying you can only trim your fingernails while you sleep. Here's the thing about pruning- if you had a broken bone, you … Continue reading Gardening Lies You’ve Been Told
Female by Design
There is so much going on in our culture regarding sex and gender and identity and any combination of those subjects, that I can't speak to them all here. My primary goal in this post is to speak to the majority of women who are struggling with the typical daily struggles of life as a … Continue reading Female by Design
